- Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds (Death Is Not the End, 1996)
My goal for the month of may was achieved in 3 days at the beginning of the month. I painted 4 Bat Swarm bases (which I will count as a single Swarm for 250 points from the WFB Armies book).
It left me plenty of time to add some extras to embellish my army... which I did not. At first I really wanted to finish 5 Black Knights I started in the previous OWAC but after two weeks I couldn't find the motivation to complete them. I was feeling bad because I really wanted to add something else, having still plenty of time. So I rummaged into my pile of undead shame and found what looked like a mounted necromancer. I had no idea where it came from. I asked on the Oldhammer identification group on Facebook and didn't had to wait too long : Nightmare Mounted GrimReaper from RAFM miniatures. It looked oldschool enough for me and would be a nice addition to my army.
That Nightmare Mounted Grim Reaper is perfectly timed as I believe RAFM have recently closed up shop after many many years trading - sad times but a very fitting and timely tribute. Great to see one painted up and ready to cause trouble on the table top! :)
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of bats, and a very striking mini that I've not seen before. Adds nicely to the atmosphere of what you've done before.
ReplyDeleteGreat work !! I love that model. Don't you think you need another big regiment ? Like skeletons, zombies etc ?
ReplyDeleteAwesome load (cauldron) of bats! The army looks terrific, good luck for the final month!
